College of Resources and Environmental Sciences, Jilin Agricultural University, Changchun 130118, China) Abstract: Urbanization is a crucial criterion of assessing a nation’s or a particular region’s level of modernization. It has been accelerated all over the world in the 21th century. The main purpose of this research is to provide a strategy of spatial pattern of urbanization for rural areas in Jilin Province based on the reality of economic development in Jilin and the im- balance of natural resources distribution. The strategy divides the nine central cities of Jilin Province into three economic circles. The outer economic circle, open circle, includes Yanbian, Baishan, Tonghua and Baicheng, covering the eastern and western parts of Jilin Province. The middle one includes Jilin, Liaoyuan, Siping and Songyuan. The inner one, centring as Changchun, includes Gongzhuling, Yitong, Nong’an, Jiutai and Dehui. It needs to centre as Changchun which has the good foundation of economic development and more economic increase, then by economic effect extending out gradually, other areas develop subsequently. To construct Jilin as a green ecological province, cultivation in the outer circle should be con- trolled, with the main aim to recover grassland. Large population should be moved to other places by developing labor economy. From economy and ecology, to decrease the load of the land can reduce the loss of the resources and benefit the balance of ecology. Subsequently, the whole province’s economy will be developed sustainably.

However, identifying ecologically vulnerable areas is difficult because it requires high spatial resolution and dense temporal resolution data over a long time period. In this study, a novel method is presented to identify ecologically vulnerable areas based on the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) time series from MOD09A1. Here, ecologically vulnerable areas are defined as those that experienced negative changes frequently and greatly in vegetation growth after the disturbances during 2000–2018. The number and magnitude of negative changes detected by the Breaks for Additive Season and Trend (BFAST) algorithm based on the NDVI time-series data were combined to identify ecologically vulnerable areas.

  • Evolution of the Process of Urban Spatial and Temporal Patterns and Its Influencing Factors in Northeast China
    Case Study Evolution of the Process of Urban Spatial and Temporal Patterns and its Influencing Factors in Northeast China Jiawen Xu1; Jianjun Zhao2; Hongyan Zhang3; and Xiaoyi Guo4 Abstract: The evolution of urban temporal and spatial patterns in Northeast China is complicated. In order to study the urbanization process in this area, explore the spatial and temporal laws of urban development in Northeast China, and find the main influencing fac- tors affecting urban development in Northeast China, DMSP/OLS images are used as data sources. Urban built-up areas in Northeast China from 1993 to 2013 are extracted and temporal and spatial patterns of urban development are studied. Combining the economic, population, industrial structure, ecological and other statistical data, a geographical detector is applied to study the main influencing factors of urban development in Northeast China. According to a selection of 10 typical cities, the annual urban expansion speed and the urbanization intensity index are calculated to quantitatively analyze the development of typical cities. The present study indi- cates that the urbanization process in Northeast China was slow during 1995–1996. In fact, except for Daqing, the other typical cities developed slowly before 2003. While the urbanization process accelerated after 2003, it reached to its maximum rate in 2010. Moreover, it is observed that from 1993 to 2013, centers of cities gradually moved to their regional centers. On the other hand, it is concluded that from 2004 to 2013, the regional gross domestic product (GDP), GDP of the secondary industry, gross industrial product, GDP of the tertiary industry and the total investment in fixed assets were main indicators of the urbanization that affected change in the urban built- up area in Northeast China.

  • The Standardization of Procedures in Village Committee Elections
    The Standardization of Villager Committee Election Procedures Survey Analysis of the 5th Round of Villager Committee Elections in 40 Villages from Five Counties in Jilin Province Sun Long and Tong Zhihui I. Survey Background, Purpose, and Methodology Chinese villager committee elections have entered a phase of legalization and standardization, as indicated by the formal promulgation of the Organic Law on Villager Committees in 1998. Jilin Province is the birthplace of the haixuan method of villager committee elections. Haixuan, or “sea election,” means that candidates are not predetermined by higher- level government offices or leaders but nominated by villagers having the right to vote. Final candidates are then determined according to the number of nominations each individual receives. (Wang Zhoutian, 1995) As early as 1986, a portion of Lishu County, Jilin Province began using the haixuan method. By the 4th round of village committee elections in 1997, 86.8% of all villages in Jilin Province had moved to the haixuan method. (Jilin Province People’s Congress Internal Affairs and Justice Committee, et al., 2001) In November 2000, the Standing Committee of the People’s Congress in Jilin Province ratified the Jilin Province Measures for the Election of Villager Committees , standardizing many procedures in villager committee elections. Under the guidance of these Measures, the 5th round of villager committee elections in Jilin Province were held between November 2000 and March 2001. To determine how well the election procedures had been implemented in the villager committee elections, in July 2001 the Ministry of Civil Affairs (MCA) Department of Basic- Level Governance and Community Construction conducted a survey of 790 cadres and villagers in 40 villages randomly selected from five counties in Jilin Province.

As the economy enters a "new normal", sustained healthy development of small and micro enterprises has been promoted as China’s national strategy. However, there are many small and micro enterprises still keeping their traditional development mode. It is hard for them to raise money and make profit and they are trapped into dilemma of low-level development and weak innovation capability due to their closeness and refusal to interact with the external world as well as lack of awareness to collaborate innovation and keeping warm. This seriously restricts the development of these enterprises. Therefore, the paper took small and micro enterprises as the research objects to analyze the basic advantages that push the synergy innovation development among these enterprises and restricted factors that hinders the development, hoping to provide some effective suggestions to accelerate the synergy innovation development of small and micro enterprises in Jilin Province. Introduction In Jilin Province is one of Chinese renowned heavy industrial base. Starting the business relatively late, most of small and micro enterprises here are still started late, most of them are still in the infancy or the period of growing. The whole economy system, which is still dominated by the grass-root level, shows the features of large-number, labor-intensive, uneven development and distribution, short life cycle and so on.

R. China, 130012 Abstract Bronze ornaments for girdles of the Mohe-Nuzhen tradition unearthed from sites at Mohe, Bohai, and Nuzhen can be classified into two phases. One phase overlaps both the Mohe and early Bohai periods. These bronze ornaments for girdles of the Sumo Mohe-Bohai tradition are mostly distributed in the valleys of Songhuajiang and Mudanjiang. The other phase is called the Nuzhen period, when bronze ornaments for girdles belonged to the Heishui Mohe-Bohai tradition, and are frequently seen in the Heilongjiang Valley. Keywords: Mohe, Nuzhen, bronze ornaments for girdles, archaeological research 1. Archaeological Discoveries Bronze ornaments for girdles (bronze, card-shaped, and attached on waistbands) of the Mohe-Nuzhen tradition are rectangular or round artifacts with various decoration patterns hollowed out on the surface and 2 to 4 raised fasteners on the back.
